Frequently Asked Questions
The ES-EL300 is the Elite aluminum impact French door, built on a 4-inch frame depth and offered in outswing configurations: single, double, or with sidelites. Self-mating sidelites keep the door-and-sidelite assembly aligned without separate mullions, for a clean, integrated look. We install the ES-EL300 on South Florida homes as a hurricane-rated French door with HVHZ certification at the Elite line's mid-tier pricing.
Yes. The ES-EL300 is Large Missile Impact (LMI) rated and part of the Elite aluminum impact line, which carries current Florida Building Code 2023 (8th edition) Miami-Dade NOAs and is approved for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone covering Miami-Dade and Broward counties. As your installer, we confirm the specific NOA and that it is current at the time of your permit so the door meets your jurisdiction's requirements.
The ES-EL300 installs up to a maximum of 144 by 96 inches overall, which accommodates a wide double door with sidelites, and individual panel widths run from about 39.75 inches up to the full assembly width. It is rated to a design pressure of +80/-80 psf, which is the wind load the unit is built to resist, and is tested to a water resistance of 12 psf. Because the design pressure your opening must reach depends on its size and wind exposure, we confirm the rating your specific door needs at quote.
The ES-EL300 is offered in a 7/16-inch laminated package (3/16-inch HS + 0.090 SentryGlas + 3/16-inch HS) and a 1-inch insulating-laminated package (3/16-inch HS + 3/8-inch air + 3/16-inch HS + 0.090 SentryGlas + 3/16-inch HS), both carrying LMI/SMI impact ratings. The door is published at an SHGC of about 0.20 with U-factors from roughly 0.70 to 1.03, and the insulating-laminated glass is the better choice for thermal performance. We recommend the glass make-up that best fits your home and budget.
The ES-EL300 uses three-point locking with heavy-duty hinges, lever handles, and deadbolts, with standard steel-and-aluminum hinges and an optional edge drip. It can be ordered with a standard sill or an ADA threshold for a lower, more accessible step-over, and glass stops are available for laminated and insulating-laminated glass in curve or straight profiles. We will go over the hardware, threshold, and glass-stop options so the door fits your opening and accessibility needs.
Installed pricing for the ES-EL300 depends on whether it is a single or double door, whether it includes sidelites, the glass package, the threshold and hardware options, and the condition of the existing opening, so there is no single price. The Elite line is positioned to deliver HVHZ-rated Miami-Dade certification without architectural-grade pricing, and as your installer Armor Pro handles measurement, permitting, and code-compliant installation. Contact us for a free, no-obligation estimate and we will measure your opening and quote the ES-EL300.
Yes. Elite is ES Windows's mid-tier aluminum impact line and carries current Miami-Dade NOAs filed under the 2023 (8th edition) Florida Building Code across its operation range, so it is HVHZ-eligible in Miami-Dade and Broward. We confirm the exact approval and design pressure for each opening before ordering.
Elite spans the full standard residential range: casement, single hung, fixed picture, sliding window, French door, and sliding glass door, all under one certified system. That breadth is why it shows up on so many quotes; a whole house can be specified on a single line. What it does not include are the architectural pivot and folding doors, which live in the Prestige tier.
ES Windows is the residential and light-commercial fenestration brand of Tecnoglass Inc. (NYSE: TGLS), and the products are manufactured at the company's complex in Barranquilla, Colombia. What makes the brand unusual is that the parent makes its own architectural glass and aluminum extrusions and then assembles the finished windows and doors in-house, so a single company stands behind the whole assembly rather than buying glass and frames from outside suppliers. We install and service ES Windows products throughout South Florida.
